then must access the wireless access point from a wired computer

or from a wireless computer that is on the access control list to

make any further changes.

Enable Rogue AP Detection

Unidentified access points that use the SSID of a legitimate network can present a serious

security threat. Detecting rogue access points involves scanning the wireless environment on

all available channels, looking for unidentified access points.

When Rouge AP Detection is enabled, the access point will only interact with devices in the

Known AP list.

 To enable Rouge AP detection:

1. Select Configuration > Security > Advanced > Rogue AP.
